    The fertile Békaa Valley stretches between the Mount Lebanon chain
    to the west and the Anti-Lebanon mountains to the east. Throughout
    history, the valley has been a major crossroad between northern
    Syria and Palestine, and between the Mediterranean coast and the
    interior. This favorable geographic situation has encouraged human Beirut Roman Temples of
    settlement in the valley since ancient times. Today, the cities and the Békaa Valley
    villages of the Békaa still preserve the remains of the people who
    lived there centuries ago. Roman temples, Islamic structures, and
    archaeological sites dating from many different historical periods
    transform the valley into a virtual “open-air museum.” It would be
    impossible to describe all the Roman temples of the Békaa Valley.
    This brochure will focus on five of the most significant sites: Fourzol,
    Niha, Hosn Niha, Temnine El-Faouqa and Qsarnaba.
